Segment and Geographic Information
In the third quarter of 2017, the Company reorganized its segment structure and bifurcated its Silicones segment into Performance Additives and Formulated and Basic Silicones to better reflect the Company’s specialty chemical portfolio and related performance. This reorganization included a change in the Company’s operating segments from two to four segments. The Company reorganized to the new four segment model, by implementing the following:
preparing financial information separately and regularly for each of the four segments; and
having the CEO regularly review the results of operations and assess the performance of each of these segments
The four segment model is composed of the following:
a new Performance Additives segment realigned from the former Silicones segment;
a new Formulated and Basic Silicones segment realigned from the former Silicones segment;
a Quartz Technologies segment, which has been renamed from the existing Quartz segment; and
a Corporate segment.
The Company’s segments are based on the products that the Company offers and the markets that it serves. The Performance Additives business is engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of specialty silanes, silicone fluids and urethane additives. The Formulated and Basic Silicones business is engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of sealants, electronics materials, coatings, elastomers and basic silicone fluids. The Quartz Technologies business is engaged in the manufacture, sale and distribution of high-purity fused quartz and ceramic materials. In addition, Corporate consists of corporate, general and administrative expenses that are not allocated to the other segments, such as certain shared service and other administrative functions.
Following are net sales and Segment EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization) by segment. Segment EBITDA is defined as EBITDA adjusted for certain non-cash items and certain other income and expenses. Segment EBITDA is the primary performance measure used by the Company’s senior management, the chief operating decision-maker and the board of directors to evaluate operating results and allocate capital resources among segments. Segment EBITDA is also the profitability measure used to set management and executive incentive compensation goals.
